Spring wardrobe (for my camera)

By Lisa Gutierrez on 03/29/2011

Yeah! It’s that time of year, again. Time for a new camera strap cover! Last May, I made one using some fabric from a vintage pillow case. This year, I went bright.

I’ve had this fabric in my possession for years. I think it was one of the first fabrics I thrifted. I saw it hanging amongst some other boring pieces and knew it was special. SO special, I brought it home with me….and then neglected it. Until the other day! I wanted something new for my camera. I love my old strap cover, but I wanted something with some more color. I used the fabric as a backdrop in some photos and wanted to make *something* out of it. Camera strap it is!

Isn’t it wonderfully Springy?

Ooooh! Also–I had a long scrap that I ripped off of it to even out the edge and couldn’t bear to part with it, so I turned it into fabric tape using my Xyron sticker maker. Waste not, want not!

I’ve always kinda hated the traditional straps that cameras come in and the ones in the store are also boring but MAKING one for yourself? Well, that’s just so original and it looks easy enough. I hope you don’t mind me being a copy cat:)
